Momo Hui Shan

Love the ambience when it's empty. Scenic view along Orchard Road if you're sitting outdoors???????? Try their Truffle Yakiniku Don. P.S.: ONSEN EGG . Awesome combination, but needs to be more salty????????

Alvin Chan

the fin de Clair oysters are a less meatier breed of oysters with a yellowish tinge that can mostly be mistaken for an inferior mollusk. the service is attentive and it's worth a visit.

Trina

HAPPY HOUR : 5-8pm daily, $10 martinis and pints. Freshly-shucked oysters $2 each. From 8pm-9.45pm daily, martini and sashimi special : 50% off martini of the day, and 5 pieces of sashimi for $5.

Jack Sung

Had the Kaisen Chirashi Don - pretty good stuff although serving was small. Good attentive service . Free wifi . Will return.

Gabriel Seah

You can change the rice bowl to a salad bowl

Jackie C.

Superstar Maki Roll (salmon on and fried cheese with tempura flakes and mentaiko) - $12.90. Very unhealthy tasting but comfort food .

Jacqueline Seng

My colleagues said the American roll is "sex in a sushi/sex in the mouth". I love the trio of fries ...couldn't decide which was my favorite out of the spam, lotus root and truffle fries !

Nat M

Lunch set was worth it, but wish that the sashmi slices were chunkier, especially the salmon one. Sweet potato truffle fries were pretty yummy too.

Steven Kok

The signature Tanuki Kaisen Chrashi Donburi was good, the sashimi was fresh and portion was very generous. For SGD22, it's definitely a good value for money , but the service was disgusting!

Aizi Razak

Loved the foie gras truffle yakiniku with fresh truffle & the superstar role????

Nicholas Koh

They're a little more strict with the oyster happy hours now. But still pretty good Japanese-influenced comfort food . Lunch sets good value - like the yakiniku and Lotus root fries .

Gabriel Seah

Monday/Tuesday lunch promo - $10 for salmon kaisen/garlic butter chicken/negitoro donburi

Pedro Aguirre

Nice food and great atmosphere, the rolls are very nice

Elise ❥

Besides my main, I enjoyed the sweet potato truffle fries .

Jonathan Lim

Go during their happy hour period (5pm to 8pm) to enjoy oysters at $2 each with any order of cocktails or martinis .

Fairuz Zainal Aarif

Foie gras yakiniku is a must try! Make it a set for value for money meal.

Warren Klass

Great all round experience. Sushi with a twist. Excellent! The boring and the mundane should avoid. Will not be able to handle the surge of something exquisitely different.

Time Out Singapore

Highly recommended are the oyster shooter with vodka and Tobasco ($12) and the steak tartare ($21). Also try the shrubs made from vinegar boiled with fruit ($2 per shot). Read more

Dora Choo

The Yakiniku yummy... Daughter said she would share with me and inhaled 3/4 of it ???? no sharing next time!

Rachel Ho

Tuna sashimi garlic don. Don here are good. Chicken looks really good and it's the cheapest $12.90.

Pam Sia

1st time here. Wld recommend what I had - Bees' Knees and the Normandy Oysters (also had the Cancale and Irish). Cocktails + Oysters = foolproof combi :)

Dora Choo

Yakiniku Don ... Even my fussy teenager gave a seal of approval but at first glance, it looks like a small portion. But was enough. Along with the set lunch comes a miso soup and not great salad ????

Ivan

Nice & fresh oysters , half a dozen for every cocktail you order during happy hour . Worth a try for oyster lover

Rachel Lee

Chirashi Don was the bomb! It came with a good amount of fresh sashimi . Skip the Curry Don. Oysters were disappointing as well (not the juicy type). What puts me off is the service, or lack thereof.

Minka Monica Li

Good value for happy hour (salmon sashimi $7 and oysters $2 per piece) but the quality isn't good. Skinny oysters , farmed salmon and drinks made from syrup .

aaron i

So many good choices.. Mako salad , salmon nachos - monito and oysters . Great find!

Ahn Bustamante

Try this! Love the Salmon Mentaiko Don. And sit at the tall tables at the deck.

Shane Gavin

Beer , trio of fries ... Oh and there is a discount on oysters with certain drink purchases.

Nicolette Hui Xian

Yakiniku Don is good as well as Cheeseburger Roll! Love It!

Ronald Ip

Happy hour $10 Martinis , $2 oysters , and $7 salmon sashimi . Good value .

Tiffany Ng

tried the salmon mentai don cos everyone raved about it but it was a cold bowl of disappointment. the oysters made up for it but didn't save the day.

Jared Chan

Food is awesome! The oysters were fresh. Love the salmon mentaiko rice bowl . Will be back again!

Junqi Liao

Pleasantly surprised by free truffle fries special after check in. Oysters were fresh... But u only get them at $1 each after buying a drink.

Howard Lo

Happy hour from 5pm - 8pm every day! $10 martinis and free musubi (spam sushi ) during this time. Discounts on cocktails and beer too.

Emmanuel Jefferson

Nice yakiniku donburi . Other than that, not much reasons to go here. Oysters aren't very fresh and small. Small bites are disappoint. Only have 2-3 options for beer . Come here only for donburi !

Valerie Oon

Happy hour oysters with order of martini and truffle fries with foursquare checkin!

Rinnapat

Japanese fusion food. Come early to avoid waiting. Couldn't taste salted egg yolk in the fries . The rolls were good. The donut wasn't. Happy hours are available. I wanted to like this place but meh.

Jeffrey Ooi

Good environment, cheap drinks during happy hour , definitely a great place to chill and hang out!

Stacy Seah

Just go for the raw stuff, forget about the fried stuff. That's why it's called Tanuki RAW!

Dora Choo

Salmon Don - the rice they serve with was different ... There's black sesame seeds mixed in. Firstborn teenage son said it was "OK"...

Kai-En Loh

Check in special of free truffle fries apparently depends on the chef 's mood, none today & replaced with salmon skin . Service staff all pinoys with slow brain waves and lack of menu knowledge . Bad.

Missy Teo

The cheeseburger roll is really worth a try and hit the spot!

Jia Xun Ngoo

Try their Garlic Butter Chicken !

Dora Choo

Barachirashi was not bad. Their premium chirashi even though was a customer favorite was "out of stock" for lunch ????. Don't expect much from the service staff .

Ting

My bara chirashi don ($17.80++) ok only. Companion's truffle yakiniku ($14.80++) is better.

melody ju

Fish Taco & Lunch Don ($12.00)! Read more

Sandy Natalia

The beef truffle don was ????????????!!!

kisacake

Got free golden fries with 4sq check-in instead of truffle . Disappointing. Too oily. Oysters were good, and so were the American fusion sushi rolls . Lychee Martini for $10 during Happy Hour !

Cheng Yang

Good place if you are into some strong martini ...$10 each between 5-8pm.

kisacake

Limited seats indoors. It's really noisy outdoors, no thanks to the Crazy Somerset Bird Congregation in the evenings!
